FIROZABAD

Firozabad, also known as the bangle city boasts of a brilliant array of colours that light up the entire city of Uttar Pradesh. The glasswear units have been working here since time immemorial. The streets have a beaty of our own. It is also known as Suhag Nagar because it has all sorts of bridal wear to dress the blushing bride.
